Hi scott, I have installed a new sound card, in addition to my old one and I didn't need any activation of Jaws. I have now, my old sound card and my new one that is USB sound blaster audigy 2 nx that's an external one. Again, I didn't need any activation and I don't know why, you had to re-activate your Jaws. If you have more details, I'll be glad to hear.

As a result I lost one life. However, I just dropped FS an e-mail and my count of three was fairly rapidly re-issued. I reckon that if anyone is considering any kind of hardware changes on their machine, they should dee-activate Jaws first and work in 40 minute mode until the chages have been made. Respectfully ...

As George says perhaps this is something for FS to know about and correct. I hope to speak to Tristram in the next couple of days - sorry Tristram again - any other experiences to amplify the case would be helpful. Thanks again.
